EPISODE VII: A SCAVENGER'S EXISTENCE...

Rey's introduction and life as a scavenger at the beginning of THE FORCE AWAKENS is an evocative and moving sequence, truly powered up by a beautiful theme for her character via John Williams, so it was interesting to recently hear from one of the film's editors that her early opening sequence had some of her speaking dialogue cut. A wise editorial choice that ultimately benefitted the final release.

WELCOME TO THE UNIVERSE OF STAR WARS AFICIONADO

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF STAR WARS AFICIONADO!

Written and conceived by Scott Weller, this is the website to the popular UK STAR WARS fan magazine STAR WARS AFICIONADO. The aim of this blog is to educate, enlighten and, hopefully, entertain STAR WARS fans of all ages across the world. Basically, to have fun and enjoy all six of George Lucas's classic movies (and beyond), TV series (like THE CLONE WARS, STAR WARS: REBELS,plus, hopefully one day, STAR WARS: UNDERWORLD), in all manner of aspects. AFICIONADO celebrates the actual films not the merchandise overkill!

And now, as of October 29th 2012's official announcement from LUCASFILM/DISNEY, we have brand new STAR WARS SAGA- EPISODEs VII to IX (and further spin-offs, likeROGUE ONE) to enjoy and experience, beginning from 2015 onwards.

From time to time, this site will also cover other LUCASFILM related movies and TV series, like INDIANA JONES, WILLOW, THX-1138, AMERICAN GRAFFITI and RED TAILS.

PLOT: The First Order continues its strikes against the New Republic, launching an almost decimating attack against the Resistance, of which Kylo Ren's powers in the Dark Side of the Force are growing.
